It Was Always You

I didn’t know it was you that wrote that love note when my boyfriend broke up with me. The note said exactly what I wanted to hear. I looked up and saw that you were staring at me. The smile painted across your face looked more like a smirk. I thought you were laughing at my tear-streaked face. I slammed my locker and stomped into the sea of teenagers. It was you I met at the masquerade ball. The next day, when you asked me out on a date, I didn’t even suspect you. It wasn’t until I met you down an aisle, dressed in white, did I finally realize, “It was you all along” I whispered. You just smiled and nodded. When said our I do’s and our lips met. This kiss was different, because I finally realized it was you all along.

i like this, its sweet and has a good plot. the only thing that id recomend is not rushing it as much. it seemed as if it was missing a little in parts. like where she went on the date, i felt like the girl was still mad at the guy from the joke she thought he was playing on her. maybe if you put some detail in what happened it would flow a bit better. but besides that i like it :) and thank you for reading and commenting on my articles!
